DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Various detailed embodiments of the present disclosure, taken in conjunction with the accompanying figures, are disclosed herein; however, it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely illustrative. In addition, each of the examples given in connection with the various embodiments of the present disclosure is intended to be illustrative, and not restrictive.

Throughout the specification, the following terms take the meanings explicitly associated herein, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The phrases “in one embodiment” and “in some embodiments” as used herein do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment(s), though it may. Furthermore, the phrases “in another embodiment” and “in some other embodiments” as used herein do not necessarily refer to a different embodiment, although it may. Thus, as described below, various embodiments may be readily combined, without departing from the scope or spirit of the present disclosure.

In addition, the term “based on” is not exclusive and allows for being based on additional factors not described, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. In addition, throughout the specification, the meaning of “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural references. The meaning of “in” includes “in” and “on.”

It is understood that at least one aspect/functionality of various embodiments described herein can be performed in real-time and/or dynamically. As used herein, the term “real-time” is directed to an event/action that can occur instantaneously or almost instantaneously in time when another event/action has occurred. For example, the “real-time processing,” “real-time computation,” and “real-time execution” all pertain to the performance of a computation during the actual time that the related physical process (e.g., a user interacting with an application on a mobile device) occurs, in order that results of the computation can be used in guiding the physical process.

As used herein, the term “dynamically” and term “automatically,” and their logical and/or linguistic relatives and/or derivatives, mean that certain events and/or actions can be triggered and/or occur without any human intervention. In some embodiments, events and/or actions in accordance with the present disclosure can be in real-time and/or based on a predetermined periodicity of at least one of: nanosecond, several nanoseconds, millisecond, several milliseconds, second, several seconds, minute, several minutes, hourly, several hours, daily, several days, weekly, monthly, etc.

As used herein, the term “runtime” corresponds to any behavior that is dynamically determined during an execution of a software application or at least a portion of software application.

Embodiments of the present disclosure teach methods and systems for managing classification outcomes of data inputs classified into bias categories. Classification machine learning models may be configured to receive a data input, such as image data of a picture, and classify what object, animate or inanimate, is displayed in the image data into classification categories. Similarly, the data input may include data of a voice recording where the classification machine learning algorithms may identify a person speaking or an accent of the person's voice in the voice recording. However, many times the classification machine learning algorithm may classify the data input incorrectly, which can be very problematic if there is an offensive misclassification, such as a human being classified as a gorilla, for example.

In some embodiments, a bias category may be defined at least in part on one or more biases associated with gender, race, skin color, shape of body part, mental abilities, physical abilities, place of origin, social affiliation, political affiliation, education level, for example.

In some embodiments, both the classification machine learning model and a bias filter machine learning model may receive the same data input. The bias filter machine learning model may be used to determine a probability that the data input may be classified into a category that may be biased. In the context of the present disclosure, a biased classification may be potentially offensive or may cause damage to people or an entity if the data input is misclassified and/or misinterpreted. The output of the classification machine learning model and the bias filter machine learning model may then be relayed to a gate machine learning model, which is configured to manage classification outcomes of the data inputs when classified into bias categories.

The exemplary embodiments shown hereinbelow solve the technical problem of misclassifying data inputs into bias data categories by the use of a gate machine learning model to manage bias classification outcomes either by blocking and/or warning users that the data input classifications may be biased.

FIG. 1 depicts a block diagram of an exemplary computer-based system 10 for managing classification outcomes of data inputs classified into bias categories, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. System 10 may include a plurality of computing devices 15, such as servers, denoted server 15A, server 15B, and server 15C, as well as a computer 25 including a display 27 of a user 30 all communicating over a communication network 20. Each of servers 15 as shown in the enlargement for server 15A may include a processor 35, a memory 40, communication circuitry and interface 45, and input/output (I/O) devices 50.

In some embodiments, processor 35 may be configured to execute code for software modules of a classification machine learning model 55, a bias filter machine learning model 60, and/or a gate machine learning model 65. Memory 40 may be configured to store a list of data categories 70 for use by classification machine learning model 55 and/or a list of bias data categories 75 for use by bias filter machine learning model 60.

FIGS. 2A-2C depict exemplary embodiments 100 of different data inputs and their classification outcomes, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure.

FIG. 2A depicts a first exemplary embodiment of image data inputs and their classification outcomes, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. Each exemplary embodiment depicts data categories 105 that data inputs 110 may be classified by classification machine learning model (MLM) 55. MLM 55 may output a classification outcome 115. For example, data categories 120 may be an elephant or a cat. For an image data input of an elephant 122, the classification outcome may be an “elephant” 128 with a confidence level 130 of 95%. For an image data input of a cat 124, the classification outcome may be a “cat” 132 with a confidence level 134 of 97%. For an image data input of a mouse 126, classifier MLM 55 may not determine classification outcome 115 so classifier MLM 55 may report an output 135 as “unknown”.

FIG. 2B depicts a second exemplary embodiment of a data input of a voice clip 142 and their classification outcomes, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. Voice clip 142 may be in any suitable audio file input format such as an MPEG Audio Layer-3 (MP3), for example. Data categories 140 may include a “northern accent” or a “southern accent” for classifying the data input using classifier MLM 55, which may recognize a voice of a Southerner 144 in voice clip 142 with a confidence level 146 of 92%, for example.

FIG. 2C depicts a third exemplary embodiment of an image data input and their classification outcomes, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. Data categories 150 may be a Caucasian male or female, a Non-Caucasian male or female, and animals. For an image data input of a Caucasian male 155, the classification outcome may be a “Caucasian male” 170 with a confidence level 172 of 95%. For an image data input of an Non-Caucasian male 160, the classification outcome may be a “Non-Caucasian male” 175 with a confidence level 177 of 97%. For an image data input of a white gorilla 165, classifier MLM 55 may misclassify the image data and report “Caucasian Male” 180 with a lower confidence level 182 of 67%. This is a bias category 185.

Similarly, consider another exemplary scenario, for example, for a picture of four people—two of which are Non-Caucasian males and two of which are Caucasian males. The input image data of this picture is then relayed to classifier MLM 55. If classifier MLM 55 reports any of the four people in the picture as being a gorilla, this may be very offensive to the person classified as the gorilla. Accordingly, any of these data categories 150 may be bias categories when used to misclassify the input data. Thus, embodiments of the present disclosure may be used to manage the classification outcomes of data inputs classified into bias categories by classifier MLM 55.

Using the second exemplary embodiment described above, a southern accent may be a bias category in the following exemplary scenario. Suppose there is a catastrophic hurricane in the southern United States causing large financial losses in property damage. A person may call in the next day after the hurricane to a financial institution applying for a loan or an increase in a credit card line of credit on a credit card, for example. The telephone communication line may sample the voice of the applicant. The voice data sample may then be relayed as an input to classifier MLM 55 identifying the person as a southerner.

The agent of the financial institution and/or algorithms assessing whether the applicant may be qualified to receive a loan and/or an increase in a line of credit is biased. If the applicant is indeed a victim of the hurricane, the applicant may have severe financial losses from the hurricane and the financial institution may use this information in credit risk assessment. However, if the applicant is merely a southerner living in the Northern United States, then the financial institution may mistakenly assume that the applicant is under financial stress. The financial institution may deny the applicant as a credit risk merely based on the applicant's southern accent and applying for more credit (e.g., loan and/or increased credit card line) one day after the hurricane devastation, for example.

In a similar vein for determining creditworthiness of an applicant for credit in the same exemplary example above, classifier MLM 55 may use handwriting sample and/or e-mail document written by the applicant to classify the applicant as someone with higher education or lower education. For example, classifier MLM 55 may assess that the applicant writes like a lawyer or a janitor to determine creditworthiness. However, the applicant may be a janitor writing like a lawyer or a lawyer writing like a janitor so the assessed occupation of the applicant may be a bias category.

FIG. 3 depicts a second block diagram of an exemplary computer-based system 200 for managing classification outcomes of data inputs classified into bias categories, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. Processor 35 may perform the functions of system 200. Processor 35 may receive a data input 205 from user 30. Data input 205 may be a text file, an audio file, a video data file, and/or an image data file.

Processor 35 may relay data input 205 to the inputs of both classification machine learning model 55 and bias filter machine learning model 60. Classification machine learning model 55 may classify data input 205 in at least one data category from a plurality of data categories and may determine a first confidence probability (e.g. confidence level 172, confidence level 177, and/or confidence level 182) in a classification outcome.

Similarly, bias filter machine learning model 60 may determine a second confidence probability that the classification outcome of classifying the data input into the at least one data category from the plurality of data categories is based on at least one bias characteristic associated with at least one bias data category from the plurality of bias data categories.

The data input, at least one data category, the at least one bias data category, as well as the first and second confidence probabilities may be input to gate machine learning model 65 to determine how to manage a classification outcome 210 of classifying the data input into the at least one data category from the plurality of data categories to a computing device of a user based at least in part on the first confidence probability, the second confidence probability, and a predefined bias threshold.

FIG. 4 depicts various classification outcomes 250 of data inputs classified into bias categories, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. Classification outcomes 250 may be displayed on display 27 to user 30 such as on a graphic user interface (GUI). Classification outcomes 250 may include data input 270, classified data categories 275 from classification machine learning model 55, a classification confidence probability (CPROB) 272 from classification machine learning model 55, and a bias confidence probability (BPROB) 274 from bias filter machine learning model 60 for each of classified data categories 275.

In a first classification outcome 255, CPROB may be determined, for example, to be 85% indicating high confidence in classifying the data input, and BPROB may be determined to be, for example, 10% indicating a low bias probability. In this exemplary embodiment, processor 35 may cause to display the classified data categories 275 for data input 270 on display 27 to user 30.

In a second classification outcome 260, CPROB may be determined, for example, to be 47% indicating a relatively low confidence in classifying data input 270, and BPROB may be determined to be, for example, 89% indicating a very high bias probability. In this exemplary embodiment, processor 35 may block displaying classified data categories 275 for data input 270 for display to user 30 on display 27 since the probability of bias and misclassification are both high.

In a third classification outcome 265, CPROB may be determined, for example, to be 75% indicating a relatively high confidence in classifying data input 270, and BPROB may be determined to be, for example, 56% indicating a moderate bias probability. In this exemplary embodiment, processor 35 may cause to display classified data categories 275 for data input 270 on display 27 to user 30 with an alert notification 280 that there may be potential bias in the classified data categories. Note that processor 35 may apply two predefined thresholds to each of the two probabilities for assessing high confidence levels in classification outcome and similarly, high bias confidence levels in assessing high bias confidence levels in the classification outcome.

In some embodiments, processor 35 may identify the classified data input and the at least one data category as potentially biased may be used to retrain the at least one classification machine learning model.

In some embodiments, the bias filter machine learning model may be implemented as, for example, a convolutional neural network model, a dilated convolutional neural network model, a dense network, a recurrent neural network model, and/or any suitable neural network model. These models may be combined with autoencoder and/or variational autoencoder to better capture the features of samples causing bias.

In some embodiments, the classification machine learning model may be implemented a classification neural network model, for example.

In some embodiments, the gate machine learning model may be implemented as a neural network model, for example.

In some embodiments, processor 35 may receive the plurality of bias data categories from the user, from a regulator, or both. The regulators, for example, from a regulatory body may defined protected classes of data categories in the classification of the data inputs in accordance with the embodiments taught herein.

Once the bias categories and confidence level thresholds (e.g., classification and/or bias confidence level thresholds) are defined, the exemplary embodiments taught herein may be applied to any suitable classification scenario using a classifier machine learning model which may result in bias.

In some embodiments, the exemplary inventive computer-based systems/platforms, the exemplary inventive computer-based devices, and/or the exemplary inventive computer-based components of the present disclosure may be configured to utilize one or more exemplary AI/machine learning techniques chosen from, but not limited to, decision trees, boosting, support-vector machines, neural networks, nearest neighbor algorithms, Naive Bayes, bagging, random forests, and the like. In some embodiments and, optionally, in combination of any embodiment described above or below, an exemplary neutral network technique may be one of, without limitation, feedforward neural network, radial basis function network, recurrent neural network, convolutional network (e.g., U-net) or other suitable network.

ii) Transfer the input data to the exemplary neural network model,

iii) Train the exemplary model incrementally,

iv) determine the accuracy for a specific number of timesteps,

v) apply the exemplary trained model to process the newly-received input data,

vi) optionally and in parallel, continue to train the exemplary trained model with a predetermined periodicity.

In some embodiments, bias filter machine learning model 60 may include a set of rules (e.g., bias terms/features).

In some embodiments, feedback may be provided to bias filter machine learning model 60 where a media data input was incorrectly classified (e.g., labeled as sample(s) classified with bias).

In some embodiments and, optionally, in combination of any embodiment described above or below, the exemplary trained neural network model may specify a neural network by at least a neural network topology, a series of activation functions, and connection weights. For example, the topology of a neural network may include a configuration of nodes of the neural network and connections between such nodes. In some embodiments and, optionally, in combination of any embodiment described above or below, the exemplary trained neural network model may also be specified to include other parameters, including but not limited to, bias values/functions and/or aggregation functions. For example, an activation function of a node may be a step function, sine function, continuous or piecewise linear function, sigmoid function, hyperbolic tangent function, or other type of mathematical function that represents a threshold at which the node is activated. In some embodiments and, optionally, in combination of any embodiment described above or below, the exemplary aggregation function may be a mathematical function that combines (e.g., sum, product, etc.) input signals to the node. In some embodiments and, optionally, in combination of any embodiment described above or below, an output of the exemplary aggregation function may be used as input to the exemplary activation function. In some embodiments and, optionally, in combination of any embodiment described above or below, the bias may be a constant value or function that may be used by the aggregation function and/or the activation function to make the node more or less likely to be activated.
